Daemon's Corral is a Lost Rite dungeon added in the Dark Arisen DLC of Dragon's Dogma 2 (DD2). Check out our guide for a full walkthrough of the Daemon's Corral Lost Rite Dungeon and where to find it, best party composition, how to defeat the boss, and rewards!

Daemon's Corral Location

Located in Timeworn Shaft

Daemon

Daemon's Corral is located inside the Timeworn Shaft cave at Eastern Vermund.

You will need to get past a whole mob of bandits then you will get to the entrance of the Daemon's Corral Lost Rites Dungeon.

You need the Empowered Godsbane Blade to enter the final room

DD2 Daemons Corral Last Room

Note that you'll need the Empowered Godsbane Blade from the late-game Main Quest A New Godsway in order to open the last door of this dungeon. All other preceding rooms are accessible without the blade.

Even with the Mirour Shelde nerfs, the Mystic Spearhand's ability to apply a shield to the entire party is valuable for this dungeon due to the amount of enemies you'll need to face and the tight spaces. It is also valuable to use a Sorcerer for its high burst damage, or a Thief due to being more nimble which help you in tighter spaces.

For your Main Pawn, consider switching to a full support Mage Pawn with High Palladium for extra party shielding, High Celerity for haste, and High Halidom for cleansing debilitations.

For the rest of your hired Pawns, consider getting a Fighter with Shield Drum to draw the aggro of enemies and bosses. Try to find a Sorcerer as well with the spells High Flagration and High Salamander for fire damage, or Meteoron to potentially one-shot the regular enemies you'll encounter in the dungeon.

Daemon's Corral Walkthrough

How to Complete Daemon's Corral

# Walkthrough
1

Go inside Timeworn Shaft and there will be an entryway with a spiral rock piece towards the left side. Upon entering, you will be inside Daemon's Corral.
2

When you enter the first main room of Daemon's Corral, you will be greeted by the dungeon's whole gimmick. The gate behind you will close and you will be faced with a sealed door and a barred door with Serpent's behind it. Open the barred door and defeat the enemies within to progress to the next room. There will be a chest inside of the barred room containing x3 Fine Roe Roborants.
3

Once you get to the second room, there will be a Minotaur behind the barred room. Defeat it to unlock the next room and the gate behind you.
4

Before proceeding to the next room, there will be a long corridor with a hidden chest at the end that contains the Ring of Projection. Note that the chest will be hidden behind a pile of rocks that needs to be destroyed.
5

Upon getting to the third room. There will be x2 Garms behind the barred door and a chest above a platform that contains x3 Exquisite Roborants.
6

Once you defeat the Garms, proceed inside the barred room to find a hidden chest behind where they were initially. This chest will contain a Wakestone.
7

After the room with the Garms, proceed to the newly opened door where you will be greeted with two more chests that will contain the Mystic Eye, and 20,000 gold. Continuing forward and opening the final door will now require the Empowered Godsbane Blade.
8

Once you enter the final room using the Empowered Godsbane Blade, you will see the final boss which is a Corrupted Cyclops. Defeat it to gain a bunch of Brinebeast Ore and a ton of EXP.
9

Finally, if you have defeated the Corrupted Cyclops, proceed to the final chest room to acquire the Scarbrand, Prickled Pomander, and Nerodia along with an Offering Flame.
